Epic Records Drops Death Grips

"Unfortunately, when marketing and publicity stunts trump the actual music, we must remind ourselves of our core values."

In a move that should not surprise followers and fans of Death Grips, at all, their major label, Epic, is "working to dissolve [their] relationship" with the group. A statement from Epic:

Epic Records is a music first company that breaks new artists. That is our mission and our mandate. Unfortunately, when marketing and publicity stunts trump the actual music, we must remind ourselves of our core values. To that end, effective immediately, we are working to dissolve our relationship with Death Grips. We wish them well.
